From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

because I can KVM from one computer to another in under 1 second and I dont feel like adding 14 to that. Plus Folding@Home.
Eh, like that's fair its personal preference but the energy waste of just having your PC idle is just weird to me. (Folding@home is totally reasonable)
Those proteins and RNAs are now the domain of deep learning, thankyouverymuch! Pull the plug!
